I was not planning on getting it for a couple months later, but Dirty convinced me it was worth it in 2 sentences. LOL. I didn't need that much convincing
I, of course, did not have the funds to buy it. I started grabbing games to go trade in. When my girl gets home from work, I told her the plan and we were off to gamestop. We get about half way there and she asked me what games I was planning to trade in. I start naming off 6 games. She just turns to me and goes "You can't sell those games. I love playing those. You are not trading them in."
So, at this point, I'm thinking there is NO way I'm getting this game. I get ready to rebuttal, and before I can say anything she says," We are going to bestbuy instead and i'll get you the game there!"
My girl is the best!
Sorry for the rant back to the game.....
Overall, I liked it. A lot actually. The MP servers need a little work but nothing to bad. I did end up liking the fact that they took stopping power out of the game. The maps are great IMO, so many different ways to get to one spot. It does make it more intense knowing that someone could be coming from anywhere.
Respawns did seem sporadic at times, but then again the game did just come out so it's not like I know where they should be.
Contracts are a major plus.
OH ZOMBIES!!! nuff said.
I still gotta try out the wager matches and theater though.
The game is different from MW2, but Black Ops is still on-par with MW2. I will continue to play it and it will not be sold back to gamestop like W@W was.
Edit: Can't forget split screen MP online either. My girl was really happy about that.
